As a representative of a large Caribbean constituency. I have always felt the need to advocate on behalf of this distinctive community while educating others that Caribbean cultures have influenced our educational and political structures as well as popular culture. Since 1619. immigrants from the Caribbean islands began to populate America. bringing with them elements of cultural. religious and linguistic diversity. I appreciate the emphasis that this resolution places on shedding light on our Nations history as many great political thinkers. such as President Alexander Hamilton. were bom in the Caribbean. This little known fact was largely unheard of because of the taboos. discrimination and racism that existed in our countrys past.
